I love golf !
I have played maybe 4 times in the last three years. In highschool I was on the golf team and played daily. Just don't have time to practice and play these days... :(

I used to play it about 3 times a week, but then I stopped. I was never good, but it was fun. I've actually been thinking about starting it up again...

I have a friend that works on a golf course so I go there often. I never thought it would be as relaxing and fun as it is. It might not be great to watch but it sure is fun to play :)

Let me put it this way:
Sometimes I put on a collared shirt.
Then I drive to a country club or municipal course with a bag full of golf clubs.
Then I put golf balls on the ground and swing at them with the clubs.
When the ball finally gets into the cup, I repeat again at the next hole.

I don't know if it qualifies as "golf" just yet, but it is similar, but for now I'll just call it "hacking around."

yup... golf is soooo much fun... i've been playing on and off for 5 years or so now, and this summer, i've been playing like 5 out of 7 days per week... either on the driving range or on the course... i know some people here and there too, so sometimes ig et to play for free, or for the price of the cart :) but workin' on my game tho... my goal is to be able to hit 300 yards consistently by the end of the summer... right now, with my current driver (my dad's old tour edge bazooka titanium, i might get the new taylor made r510 or r540) i'm hitting 275-285 pretty consistently... i just need a little more OOMPH to get to the big 300!!

I've gotta wake up at 4:30 AM to play at 5:30 AM on Saturdays because of the nagging wife. Makes things tougher but I still love playing. It usually takes me a couple holes to wake up though.

I'm just getting started into it. Played my first 18 holes on Sunday. I'll probably play again some time this weekend.

I used to be an avid golfer, but my interest has faded in recent years. But I still play every once and a while.

I've been playing for about three years and generally shoot in the mid to high 80's (depending on the course). It's not only fun to play, but it's a great way to spend 4-5 hours with good friends soaking up the sun and shooting the breeze. Great fun provided you don't take it too seriously.:)
